HELP NEEDED WITH VITARA 2.0 TD

[Dave Mac]

Hi could any one help me with some info? I have a 96 LWB Vitara 2.0 Turbo Diesel, fitted with the standard Mazda RF 1998cc TD engine, the head gasket has blown, I have bought a gasket set, and timing belt, I also  intend to have the head skimmed, my problem is that I can not find infomation about this engine anywhere, I really need to know what the torque on the cylinder head bolts needs to be, also where the timing marks are and how they should be  positioned when setting the timing back up, I would be grateful for any guidance that could be offered.

Thanks

Dave

I've had a bit of a search.  Try;

I hate to say this but arn't the answers in the haynes manual.  My manual doesn't cover diesels :(

Failing that try the local dealer, surely they'll tell you :)
